Poll: The Official OcUK EU Referendum Exit poll (and results discussion thread)

[jigger]

The UK will have one hell of a health service with 350 million a week pumped into it. Nigh Bevan would be proud.

 

[Robbo]

So, after all that, it turns out the markets aren't doing too badly at the moment.

I've been reading this thread and the comments on the Youtube vid of, David Camerons speech this morning.

I'm seeing lots of praise from Europeans, all the negativity has come from the UK In voters mostly calling the Out voters racist and xenophobic.

I'm seeing comments from EU nationals also wishing to leave the EU, the best comment being "Brexit' to be followed by Grexit. Departugal. Italeave. Czechout. Oustria. Finish. Slovakout. Latervia. Byegium"

I voted Remain and I'm disappointed, angry and upset.

The entire referendum has been an absoloute joke and both sides have behaved terribly.

The Remain campaign just didn't do enough to convince people that the EU is not some all controlling un-democratic union and is actually a force for good in this world.

But hey, it's over and bickering amongst ourselves isn't going to do anything. We need to move on and work together to try and get our economy back on track as ultimately, this is going to have the biggest impact on everyone.

As a Remainer, I am obliged to post something along the lines of this:

Just received a message from Conservative HQ. Nothing new really.

I work for a global company in the aerospace industry and emails from my company stated prior to voting that investment may not continue to be made in the UK however an email today read that the UK has certain required skill sets and that we deliver world class leading technology and services globally. That's the positive the negative was them highlighting it will take some time to assess what the impact is of the exit decision.

I work on the A350 project (wing) and our facility has had major investment to ensure we can meet rate as it ramps up. I know that doesn't 100% mean that Airbus wouldn't pull the plug but fingers crossed!

They aint pulling the jigs or equipping from tbe uk.
Theres no way it could work

Cameron brought this referendum upon us all to quell the support Nigel Farage was getting, in doing so a lot of the electorate saw it as a way to take Cameron and his stooge Osborne down, it worked.

He put his job on the line and it back fired, Cameron put all yours and the rest of the remain voters wishes to stay in the EU and keep the status quo on the line.

This was all started by a bunch of Tories who do not give a **** what you or I think, it was for their benefit only, and it has back fired big time.

So Cameron is who you need to blame, not the 52% of the electorate that voted remain and who are still being called racist, xenophobes and bigots on here and in the media, it's getting old.

Where is Osborne by the way? He and is mate Dave have screwed over a lot of people in the past 6 years, does anyone think those people didn't vote as a BIG **** you Dave? They deserved their chance and took it.

Then you have all the people who voted for other reasons obviously, i was always pretty confident it would be a leave vote because of what i have said above.

Oh and those tears from Dodgy Dave this morning, **** you Dave, **** you.

The country is also now split down the middle and in a nasty way, just look at it on here, all because of Cameron and his mates.

He only fixed the economy and made the country more secure. Not like he did much

The referendum did backfire but he campaigned for what he believed in and I honestly feel he's a good guy.

No because they outsmarted MI5 by using biros

 

[BuffetSlayer]

Bring it on, I say.

I think we were in a tricky spot. The EU was becoming overbearing and the gravy train in Brussels was bordering on obscene.

If we exit we have a period of instability and some really tough decisions to make.

Personally i believe the UK has what it takes to go it alone. Sure there may be tough times ahead but will we say it was a bad decision in 10 or 20 years time. Who knows.

But rather than doom and gloom, lets take the hand we have and crack on. Instead of viewing it as a catastrophic outcome, why not see it as a huge opportunity?

Im quite excited for the future but as with many things in life, you sometimes have to take a step back now to take 3 steps forwards later.

Facebook has gone mental. It seems that democracy is great unless you don't win. Then it's terrible and 52% of people should never of been allowed to vote as their too old/unintelligent/racist etc. It's done, you might not like it, but we have to get on with it.

It is astonishing to hear this and I have been confronted by it all day in That London. Such a disconnect with the sentiment and demographic who have actually called out. I am a member of private place, full of industry leaders and seriously wealthy sorts and the out vote was their call but a margin higher than actually occurred. To be called a bigot for disagreeing with someone is somewhat ironic.

Was it not an abysmal turnout for the Scots, something like 25%?

67.2% according to the BEEB.

I think we can all agree that there has been lies and deceit on both sides. It's been an awful campaign that has been very destructive from both sides. No one was ever going to come out of this smelling of roses.

What's done is done though. Let's bury the hatchet and get on with the job in hand and get this country back on track.

Agreed 100%!

Lets just get on with it... send out the positive waves and see where it takes us.

"People who didn't vote the way I wanted are racist!!! wahhh!!"

Unbelievable..

This. This is all I'm seeing. Everywhere.

 

[Cern]

Here's the problem.

If this had been a referendum debated on facts and rational, measured predictions and aspirations for the future, then I think the Remain camp would take the defeat more gracefully as it would indeed have represented healthy democracy.

But it wasn't.

The referendum was debated using lies and xenophobia on one side and threats and fear-mongering on the other.

Whatever the outcome was, this is not a healthy or sane way to make such a monumental decision that will affect this country for generations to come (for good or for ill).

Most of the people I spoke to before the vote said they weren't sure how they would vote because they didn't fully understand the issues. Not because they are stupid, not because they didn't try to find out some facts. But because of all the noise, lies, rhetoric, threats, fear-mongering, posturing, bullying, xenophobia and an obsession with a very narrow range of issues. So in the end many just decided to kick the establishment and to hell with the consequences. In many ways it seems to have turned into a form of protest vote rather than a rational decision about our country's future. Hence the hangover feeling that seems to be hanging in the air.

That's not healthy democracy and it will have implications for the future regardless of whether Britain thrives outside the EU or not.

The difference is those countries don't have another union to be worried about.

I voted out now I'm moving to Syria

 

[snips86x]

I've heard very similar from 'leavers' locally to, it's really disheartening, I really think there will be voters remorse on this one down the line, especially if Scotland leave, without their vote in the GE we're stuck with the Tories governing us for a very time if not forever.

Been reading a few articles online where people have been interviewed and said they voted out and didn't think it would count...now wishing they hadn't lol

Yup! That's democracy!

Completely agree. Don't blame the people you ****ed on when they turn round and **** all over you.
